P + r = 2.50
r = p + 1
p + p + 1 = 2.50
2p + 1 = 2.50
2p = 2.50 - 1
2p = 1.50
p = 1.50/2
p = 0.75 <=== pencil cost 75 cents
r = p + 1
r = 0.75 + 1
r = 1.75 .....ruler cost 1.75
If you add everything up then
14x-2=180
14x=182
x= 13
So the angles would equal
2(13)+1= 27
3(13)-3= 36
9(13)= 117
The angles are 27 36 and 117
Which makes the smallest angle 27 which is B.
A² = b² + c² - 2bc cosA
a² = 10² + 14² - 2*10*14 cos54
a² = 100 + 196 - 280 * cos54
a =
a = 11.46
I assume the answer is 1/4
The percent error is 29%. I posted the equation for percent error on your other question.
